FWIW, Zooko is on the list. If it wasn't him, someone who knows who it was needs to ask them to supply their justification for the list - given that there are a number of objections being raised here which need to be addressed. I don't think "someone said they need it" is sufficient justification by itself. I'm not trying to criticise the work done at PyCon, but I think the discussions (and not just the conclusions) need to be publicised better.
